ABSTRACT:
A power generating system for adjustably coupling an induction motor, as a generator, to an A.C. power line wherein the motor and power line are connected through a triac. The triac is regulated to normally turn "on" at a relatively late point in each half cycle of its operation, whereby at less than operating speed, and thus when the induction motor functions as a motor rather than as a generator, power consumption from the line is substantially reduced.
